    You make get more knowledable responses if you post on the DCIS forum or the stage I/II forum, or the DCIS with microinvasive forum, or the Her2+ forums.

    I'm not entirely sure what you have - ductal carcinoma in situ and nothing worse is by definition stage 0 and not invasive.  Invasive breast cancer is by definition not in-situ.  

    You can have DCIS and have invasive breast cancer simultaneously, but they normally treat those people as the most advanced cancer (in this case invasive).

    Leaf is correct - you will get more responses on those other boards. However, for your situation, being HER2+ve (I can speak from experience) they will recommend chemo/herceptin. Your diagnosis is confusing in that you say invasive as well as in situ. It's either one or the other. Given you say stage 1 - it's probably invasive as ductal carcinoma in situ is stage 0. Hope this helps.
